Great video, however while I understand everything I got confused when you talked about “princess” seems and then you showed how you finished it off by cutting out four pieces. I wish you had shown how you did that and explained why! Do you have a video that can help me complete that final step?
Please ma, I have 2 questions. 1. From the video of drafting a basic bodice, you measured the front and back width as 15 and 14" respectively. So, how do you get this width if you do not measure it on your client. What I do is to use the shoulder measurement for the back and subtract half an inch of the shoulder measurements for the front. 2. I think that the skirt waist defers from the natural waistline because people place their skirt separately. What I do is ask my client where they place their skirt and take my measurements from there. I stand to be corrected. Thank you very much ma.
Thanks for your response. But another question is, what if the dart on the back block skirt is as wide as 2" how do you fuse with a top having just 1" dart for a dress without waist seam. Thank you
With such a case, the bodice will definitely be smaller than the skirt at the waist line, so you will adjust the bodice dart( increase) to match up the skirt. So that construction of the dart will be bold from the bodice to the skirt. This makes the back to dit well. Kindly Watch the dress drafting video again. Thanks
@@laperycollegeoffashion8737would be allot easier for everyone if you were to copy and paste the link to those videos in this comment so that we would not have to chase around for it
I think d difference is wen u already av a basic bodice pattern n skirt pattern, u don't want to start drafting all over again, instead u fuse them together
@@laperycollegeoffashion8737 At least its becoming clearer. If you don't mind, is there like a standard shoulder width for the sleevless armhole or do I just reduce shoulder to any length of my.🙂 choice
@@berylakinyi3818 Reduce shoulder by at least 1" on pattern to modify to sleeveless but could do more than that depending on the particular style you are working on. This still has to do with neck width or depth.
Good morning ma. Thanks so much for this class. Please, while you disregarded the back tightening of the dress with waist seam line, on the blouse part, you did not mention the skirt part, will it be considered or disregarded?
Thanks for commenting. Kindly check the blouse pattern again. I am very sure I did. Someone even asked in the comment section which I answers. Thanks once again
